Perhaps you are an average student with average intelligence. You do well enough in school, but you probably think you will never be a top student. However, you can receive better grades if you want to. Here’s how:
1. Plan your time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks. Then make a schedule. Fill in committed time such as eating, sleeping, meetings, classes, etc. Then decide on good, regular time for studying. Be sure to set aside enough time to complete your normal reading and work assignments. Of course, studying shouldn’t occupy(占用) all of the free time on the schedule. 61______.
2. Find a good place to study. Choose one place for your study area.62_______, but it should be comfortable, and it should not have distractions（分心）. When you begin to work, you should be able to concentrate on the subject.
3. Make good use of your time in class. Listening to what the teacher says in class means less work later. Sit where you can see and hear well. 63______ .
4. Study regularly. Go over your notes as soon as you can after class.64_______. If you review your notes and textbook regularly, the material will become more meaningful and you will remember it longer.
5. 65______. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t worry excessively about a single test. Tests provide grades, but they also let you know what you need to spend more time studying, and they help make your knowledge permanent.
A. It may be a desk or a chair at home or in the school library
B. It is best to make a weekly schedule
C. Review important points mentioned in class as well as points you remain confused about

On April 24th, another natural disaster—the oil spill(泄露) in the Gulf of Mexico, happened. Millions of dollars have been used to help stop the spill and to clean up the animals, beaches, and land spoiled by the oil．Unfortunately, when many of these chemicals are used, more damage is caused to the environment, especially to lives in the sea．
But governments seem to accept the risk of transporting millions of tons of oil by ship every day so that we can fill up our cars and drive around and cause even more environmental damage．Interestingly, the biggest companies in the world produce cars, and the next biggest supply the gasoline to make them run.
Of all of today’s environmental disasters, an oil spill may actually be one of the least serious．Although oil is poisonous, it is a natural material．In the end, it breaks down naturally．In 1967 the tanker Torrey Canyon sank off the Scilly Isles near the coast of England and spilled 120,000 tones of oil into the ocean．If you go there today, you will find it hard to see any sign that it ever happened．
However, we should be thinking more about reducing our dependency on oil．Governments should be encouraging research into new technologies, such as cars run by solar power（太阳能）, electricity, hydrogen, and so on．Much of this research, in the past, was stopped by the oil, gas, and coal．
If the world’s millions of cars were 10% more efficient（高效的）,we would need many fewer tankers crossing the oceans each year．If this happened, the risks of oil spills would be reduced, and the air we breathe would be cleaner and fresher, too．

In the modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity (繁荣). Others say that competition is bad, that it sets one person against another, that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.
I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit (追求) of success, the development of many other human qualities is really forgotten.
However, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often notice that they have a desire to fail. They seem to choose failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try.” They don’t believe that if they had really tried and lost, such a loss would prove their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one’s self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison(比较) with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve (缓解) can we discover a new meaning in competition.

A．It builds up a sense of duty. |

C．It improves personal abilities. |

A．those who try their best to win |
|
B．those who value competition most highly |
|
C．those who are against competition most strongly |
|
D．those who rely on others most for success |

|
A．One’s success is based on how hard he has tried. |
|
